the product performance is satisfactory

published

The Vax vacuum cleaner I purchased six months ago and I have had no trouble with it. It is easy to use and well suited for a small house like mine. The size is not very bulky and easy to store. I am satisfied with the product.

Purchased in January 2021 at Harvey Norman for $129.00.

bad bad bad

published

12 months old and the battery wont charge. this machine has given poor performance for the time used (it is only a second use vac for the small jobs at home) the cylinder head doesnt revolve any more beecause the battery doesnt provide enough power. called the vax line for a replacement, poor performance from customer service reps, onlty wanted to pass the buck and send me back to the retailer, even thought the product is still within warranty period. no help whatsoever. better to spend the extra for the dyson i think.

Purchased in February 2021 at Bunnings Warehouse.

Poor suction and construction. No response to online message. Poor warranty service and conditions

published

Only 4 months old. Poor suction, debris remains attached to the outside of floor tool. Flimsy construction with flex in all connections. Hard floor tool has rubber "wiper" that serves to drag debris across floor with potential for scratching. Not recommended for polished wooden floors. Plastic trash bin retaining clip broke (flimsy); now has to be taped up to operate vacuum cleaner. Warranty service required 40 minute drive each way with no guarantee issue would be covered. Courier only available if over 50km from a service centre. Cannot in any way recommend the product or after sales "service". Online message to Vax remains unanswered over 2 weeks after being sent.

Great vacuum

published

We recently bought the vax vx53 and are quiet pleased with our purchase. I have used other stick vacuums in the past but I really like how this machine is super light weight and has so many attachments for different surfaces. I mostly use it for hard surfaces and quick clean ups but I am really pleased that I can vacuum a rug or bathroom mats without it being sucked up into the machine. The machine is a little noisy but it is a good indication the remind me to clean out the filter.
Overall a great product for a great price.

Frustrated

published

I was given this as a gift as I wanted a Dyson but this was cheaper option.
I love the idea but mine does not lift much and then when you turn it off half of the dirt falls out.
We have tried everything.
I wonder if I ‘ve had a faulty one.
Cheaper but waste of money .
I keep trying .
Not very time saving for me so very disappointed.

Vax great to start with

published

We purchased this in May by July it had lost it’s sucking power, it was fantastic to start with an easy to clean except when taking out the inn part with the seal this can be a bit tricky to get back on. It was a fantastic vacuum to start but not worth buying for long term use.

Great for Inbetween Vacuum's

published

I really like this slim vac, it is perfect for in-between vacuums and to clean up small dirt trails or dog fur! I have a small-medium unit and it can easily vacuum the lounge room with a great result. It is easy to use and very easy to empty out.

Wish I had purchased sooner

published

Good little cordless vacuum - it is very easy and convenient to use. I find I easily pull it out to clean up little messes. Doesn't replace a full vacuum but great to tidy up. Good suction and easy to empty. Good battery life. Would have given 5 stars but the head is a little light and swivels too easily. I have seen other machines with more sturdy heads.

Best cordless vaccum for the price - Made in Aus

published

Recommend and very happy with performance of Total Home and range of attachments. Dyson motor is double the weight and $500 to $600 more and does not have a permanent "On" switch. Little noisy but that comes with the cordless I guess. All packaging was recyclable (except 2 rubber bands) and very happy to support a fully Aus made product. why choose an import!

Great Product

published

Easy to use. Don't have to hold switch down like other similar products (e.g. Dyson). Great to use on carpets and hard floors. Easy to empty. Lightweight compared to other products. Many attachments are supplied. Can be used on stairs, curtains and furniture. Best product I have ever bought. Would recommend this product to anyone.

Hi there,
Sorry to hear that, I have never had any problems like this. Is there any suction at all? If not, it could be a problem with a seal. If you are using the power brush, make sure that it is turned on and that it spins freely by removing any hair. I suggest taking it back to where you purchased it from and get them to have a look.

Mine broke after 3 months. Took it back for a refund, the shop said it had to go for repair. Report came back dirt had bypassed the filter and clogged motor. Said this wasn't covered under warranty. I'm currently pursuing case with Vax

Vx53p has anyone bought this just to use on hardwood floors?

IIt may be a little late now, but I bought this vacuum mainly to do hard floors. It comes with a hard floor tool which is basically a head with squeegees on the sides. I find it works really well, even picking up dirt in between tiles.
